In the Name of Tolerance...

And yet again, another catastrophe is unfolding in the U.S. America has forsaken common sense and sound judgment for the sake of being tolerant. Being tolerant in America has become so paramount; it trumps right from wrong, logic, and the ability to make a reasonable decision on behalf of the citizens of our country.

The Cordoba Initiative is the driving force behind the presumed building of a Mosque two blocks from the 9/11 site. If it were possible, the nearly 3000 who lost their lives that horrific day, would arise from the dead to shock some sense into any person who has said “yea” to this Islamic mausoleum. While Mayor Bloomberg gives a thumb up for the Mosque, New York City’s Landmark Preservation Commission clears the way for the site’s construction. Have we become so politically correct that common sense and knowing right from wrong has completely been obliterated from our society? Have we become the Nation of Stupid? It is becoming increasingly clear that those in charge of making decisions on behalf of our society, lacks the ability to do so with any sense of good judgment. Their decisions are based on their own political or financial gain. It could be we have a learning disability epidemic among our public officials. They could be incapable of making an intelligent decision. Unfortunately, their inability or disability is our misfortune. There has to be boundaries. There has to be a line we will not cross. America’s decision makers need to learn to say “NO!” We cannot accommodate all things, for all people, all the time.

The Cordoba House is not a Fig Leaf. It will be the Crown Jewel of Mosques in the United States. There are over 1200 Mosques already in America. Opposing this Mosque has nothing to do with intolerance or intruding on First Amendment Rights. It has everything to do with respecting those who died on September 11, 2001. It is highly inappropriate to build a shrine to Islam at the site of Ground Zero. People died because of Islam on that day. Erecting a Shrine to Allah at this site will most definitely make a statement to the world; a very loud statement, that our tolerance is more important than our remembrance for those that were murdered by the hands of terrorists. We have forsaken their death for a much higher calling. A calling that would make Osama bin Laden proud. Just maybe we can draw him out of his cave, and welcome him to the steps of this great Mosque. Isn’t this the real motive behind the Mosque? We want to be loved? We yearn to be accepted by our enemies? If so, we’ve truly lost our grip on reality. Islam is not our friend. Evil does exist.

The Koran is the rule of law in Muslim society. It is their constitution. It is a totalitarian constitution which directly conflicts with the Constitution of the United States of America. The Koran is the cornerstone that governs all Mosques all over the world. It commands prohibition of any form of religious freedom or tolerance. While our constitution demands religious tolerance, their constitution (Koran) is in direct opposition. For the sake of being tolerant, we are allowing others to be intolerant. This is where the stupididy comes in. It is impossible for two opposing forces to unite. Eventually, one or the other will have to give. Since we follow the law of tolerance, it will undoubtably be us. Because we tolerate everything we will loose everything.

Today Judaists are fighting for The Caliphate. One nation under Allah. Around 929, Islam was a world power; a leader in culture, literature and science. The Great Mosque of Córdoba was erected in Spain during that time, and was a symbol of Islam’s conquest over Spain and it’s dominance in world power. The Cordoba House near Ground Zero will represent a victory for Islam. If built, it could very well represent a significant point in Islamic history. It’s interesting to note the meaning of the The Three Wise Monkeys. See no evil, Hear no evil, Speak no evil. In eastern culture it means being of sound mind by keeping oneself free from bad influences. Not seeing, hearing or speaking bad things protects one from calamity. In western culture, it means looking the other way, being willfully ignorant of the truth. If we continue to forsake truth and sound judgement for tolerance, let us replace the torch held high in the right hand of The Statue of Liberty; which represents freedom from oppression and tyranny, and replace it with a big white flag. It will be an invitation for all the world, to come and ravish our beloved America. The great nation that was.
